Great shot of Charm City Rollergirls' Joy Collision (in the pink helmet cover)!
To see more roller derby action (in air conditioned comfort instead of on the sizzling blacktop of the 'fest!), check out our next bout on August 23. Our All-Star team takes on Carolina. Go to www.charmcityrollergirls.com for info and ticket links!
